Answer to Question 1

D

Feedback
A Incorrect. Radon is not a waste by-product of medical supplies that have not properly burned.
B Incorrect. Radon is not a mold caused by a particularly deadly type of fungus.
C Incorrect. The community health nurse may assess the community for toxins which contaminate groundwater, but radon is not a groundwater contaminate derived from petroleum.
D Correct. The community health nurse assesses the community for environmental toxins including radon which is a radioactive gas caused by decaying uranium.

Answer to Question 2

Autistic children may not wish to interact with other children. These children rely on routine and order for security. The nurse should try to maintain the normal routine as much as possible. The child may be comforted by the repetitive movement. Language delays are a common occurrence in autistic children.
